Trump Rants on Twitter About NY Times: ‘Greatly Embarrassed’ by ‘Libelous’ Report

Donald Trump is pretty pissed off about that New York Times report looking at his not-so-rosy history with women, especially in the wake of one of the interview subjects saying her words were distorted.

Trump started tweeting about it this morning, but after a few hours of letting it subside, he’s back at it again:

Rowanne Brewer, the most prominently depicted woman in the failing @nytimes story yesterday joined @foxandfriends. https://t.co/qkK3LJPoQQ

The failing @nytimes is greatly embarrassed by the totally dishonest story they did on my relationship with women.

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 16, 2016

No wonder the @nytimes is failing—who can believe what they write after the false, malicious & libelous story they did on me.

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 16, 2016

Over 50 women were interviewed by the @nytimes yet they only wrote about 6. That’s because there were so many positive statements.

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 16, 2016

The writer of the now proven false story in the @nytimes, Michael Barbaro, who was interviewed on CBS this morning, was unable to respond.

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 16, 2016

The Times is standing by the overall story.
